Bloods and Crips unite during Atlanta Black Lives Matter protest

Friday night's Black Lives Matter protest in Atlanta united members of rival gangs Crips and the Bloods.

Photos posted to social media show rapper T.I. marching with the gang members as they tied their red and blue bandanas together. The protests, which will continue for a fifth consecutive night this evening in Atlanta, are in response to two separate fatal police shootings of two African-American men last week.
